Will Sprint be getting this?

 

ATT just announced the Galaxy S6 Active which is close relation to the sport... One huge difference between the regular s6 and the Active is the battery size. The active has a much larger 3500 mah battery compared to the S6 2550 mah.

As of now, we don't know. I'm not sure how the S5 Active sold and if it'll be worth releasing a 6 version of it. Only time will tell.

The S5 Active offered very little in practical terms over the S5, with the S5 already having water and dustproof design and the ability to add a case giving more drop protection.

 

The S6 Active on the other hand is what I had hoped the S6 would be, and brings back most of the features that kept me from upgrading.

 

I hope Sprint will get it.

The Active is out on AT&T now and the reviews are good.

 

But still no SD or removable battery

It is aggravating that Samsung held that as an AT&T exclusive. Lots of people on the other carriers would buy that instead of the GS6. I hope Samsung is happy with whatever payola they took from AT&T. [emoji107]

Samsung I bet would have sold even more if they opted to include a 3500MAh battery with their flagship.  I know I would have bought it as that was the only factor keeping me from pulling the trigger.  I currently have the S6 Active and the battery performance on it is great!  I just really wish it wasn't an AT&T exclusive.

Samsung loves to make very short-sighted decissions

      Network Vision/LTE - New York City Market

      By Paynefanbro · Posted

      Unable to confirm if it's really off but I noticed this morning that I'm no longer connecting to Band 41 on my home site. Switching my phone to LTE-only pretty much always put me on Band 41 since it was the least used band on T-Mobile's network. Now I'm only able to connect to Band 2/66. Not complaining because it means speeds are faster on LTE and maybe 150MHz n41 is around the corner.

      Dish Network/Boost Mobile cell/5G buildout thread

      Definite usage quirks in hunting down these sites with a rainbow sim in a s24 ultra. Fell into a hole yesterday so sent off to T-Mobile purgatory. Try my various techniques. No Dish. Get within binocular range of former Sprint colocation and can see Dish equipment. Try to manually set network and everybody but no Dish is listed.  Airplane mode, restart, turn on and off sim, still no Dish. Pull upto 200ft from site straight on with antenna.  Still no Dish. Get to manual network hunting again on phone, power off phone for two minutes. Finally see Dish in manual network selection and choose it. Great signal as expected. I still think the 15 minute rule might work but lack patience. (With Sprint years ago, while roaming on AT&T, the phone would check for Sprint about every fifteen minutes. So at highway speed you could get to about the third Sprint site before roaming would end). Using both cellmapper and signalcheck.net maps to hunt down these sites. Cellmapper response is almost immediate these days (was taking weeks many months ago).  Their idea of where a site can be is often many miles apart. Of course not the same dataset. Also different ideas as how to label a site, but sector details can match with enough data (mimo makes this hard with its many sectors). Dish was using county spacing in a flat suburban area, but is now denser in a hilly richer suburban area.  Likely density of customers makes no difference as a poorer urban area with likely more Dish customers still has country spacing of sites.

      Mike if you need more Dish data, I have been hunting down sites in western Columbus.  So far just n70 and n71 reporting although I CA all three.
